Absolutely great
Great communication throughout. Knowledgeable and passionate guides. Seamless airport transfers and they really do place customer experience first even if things don't go precisely to plan.
March is also an absolutely wonderful time for game viewing despite it being low season. We practically had the parks to ourselves and saw so much.
Highly recommended.

Everything was perfectly organised. The transport, the safari, the accommodation. Every detail was taken care of by Morris and his team. Evans was a great driver and safari guide. Would highy recommend Morris and Balu Travel.

Excellent communication and caring of my needs.
Very personal touch. I asked Tongai (he handled my reservation) what I wanted and he produced the exact option. Very competitively priced and the attention not just from Tongai but the whole team was amazing.

The experience of a lifetime
Putting my current emotions into words is gonna be one of the hardest things I'll ever write, for I am simply overwhelmed by undescribable joy and infinte happiness for the experience I just had, marred only by the sadness of having to go back home.
So let's start from the technical side of things: I started sending out requests for a safari offer about two to three months ago, I must have sent at least 7 of them.
I remember it was around 10:30 pm in Italy when I sent the request to who I didn't know was John back then, so it was 12:30 pm in Tanzania. Immediately after sending the request I received a call from him during which he politely introduced himself and proceeded to give me time and space to discuss the best safari plan for me and give me freedom to ask any kind of question I had. Right off the bat he sounded like an incredibly professional and calm person, incredibly helpful, polite and funny. 5 minutes after that call - which I want to stress, I haven't received from ANY other safari tour operator - I received the offer for a 6-day safari, beautifully laid out with plenty of details and for a very fair price.
I decided to book my safari with him and at this point you might think that he would have started being reluctant with communication but no, he kept being willing to answer any question I had at basically any time of the day. Not only I was impressed, but I also felt stress- and anxiety-free, especially considering I traveled alone.
John always managed to give me the best advice possible and he put me at ease when I needed it the most.
Once I got at Kilimanjaro International Airport on March 15th I was swiftly picked up by Justin, a young man full of energy and positivity, with great driving skills, which drove me to the city center where I met with John and his brother - and what amazing people they are. Again - professional, funny, with composure and great communication skills. We discussed how the following days would have panned out and I was brought to my hotel.
The next day I had the pleasure to be driven to the foot of Kilimanjaro by Justin once again and I was accompanied to the first mountain hut by Zakayo, an absolutely spectacular guide, incredibly knowledgeable, funny, polite and smart.
The next day I was introduced to my fellow travellers, our unbelievable guide Manfred and the spectacular chef David (also know as Dvd) for the safari ahead of us and I could not have been more lucky with all of them.
I will just say that what Manfred and Dvd do is not just a job, it's a passion, it's a lifetime calling to make people feel the best way possible, it's a natural predisposition to politeness, happiness, light-heartedness and unmitigated fun. Magnificent human beings, both of them.
On one side we have Manfred, a young man in his late 20's with a genuine and undescribably deep passion for all things nature, equipped with an unbelievably vast knowledge of geographical, biological, and cultural trivia and information. Not only that - he displayed empathy, politeness, helpfulness, actually sublime driving skills through the difficult and highly technical terrains of the national park we visited and most of all a fun and carefree attitude. Needless to say, we all became friends with him in a matter of few hours into the first day of our safari.
On the other side we have Dvd, a hard-working, jolly middle-aged man which spoiled us with his delicious cooking (miles ahead of the competition, without a doubt incontestably better than what all the other safari groups we encountered had for breakfast, lunch or dinner) and never failed to entertain us with his contagious humor and hilarious jokes. He also displayed constant helpfulness and a politeness which is rare to find, in my personal opinion. Without him the experience wouldn't have been the same.
Shout-out also to Jackson, my driver for the last day, a kind soul with a relaxing charm and impressive driving skills.
In conclusion I can say that in John, Zakayo, Justin, Manfred, Dvd and Jackson I didn't just find top-notch professionals, but marvelous human beings that effortlessly managed to make me feel at home among the local people and the spectacular locales of Tanzania, allowing me to discover extraordinary individuals along the way and meeting friends which I hope will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Words will never do justice for the emotions I felt during this trip and still feel know while writing this review, and no amount of gratitude from my part will repay this unforgettable experience.
Thank you all for making me fall in love with your magnificent country and for letting me live the experience of a lifetime.

Professional operation with special attention to guests in a unique setting.
Bongani is incredibly welcoming and experienced. His lodge, situated in his local village, is extremely comfortable and professional. The staff were very friendly and we were treated like kings! The tours that we did were superb and the guides experienced. We saw a lot of incredible animals and birds. Would highly recommend Bongan Safaris for anyone who wants a different, more personal safari experience!
